[0034] Combine the following Figures 1 to 5 This application is described. Figures 1 to 5As shown, the embodiment itself provides a packaging box coding streamline. The packaging box coding streamline is used to spray code on the packaging box, and the packaging box includes a packaging box upper cover and a packaging box lower cover that cover each other and form a accommodating space. The accommodating space is used to accommodate the product to be packaged. The packaging box coding streamline includes: a conveying mechanism 100, a flipping mechanism 200 and a coding mechanism 300. In order to better illustrate the packaging box coding streamline, a rectangular coordinate system is established with the length direction of the packaging box coding streamline as the X-axis, the width direction as the Y-axis, and the height direction as the Z-axis. The conveying mechanism 100 is used to convey the carrier 4 and convey the carrier 4 from the loading position 101 to the flipping mechanism 200 and the coding mechanism 300 in sequence. The flipping mechanism 200 includes: a first transport module 210, a first suction cup assembly 220 and a flipping assembly 230, wherein the first suction cup assembly 220 and the flipping assembly 230 are connected to the first transport module 210; the first transport module 210 drives the first suction cup assembly 220 to separate the upper cover 1 and the lower cover 2 of the package box covered on the first loading position 41 of the carrier 4, and transports the upper cover 1 to the second loading position 42 in the carrier 4 and exposes the information area of the upper cover 1 of the package box, and the flipping assembly 230 is used to flip the lower cover 2 of the package box on the first loading position 41 to expose the printing area of the lower cover 2 of the package box. The coding mechanism 300 is used to perform coding printing on the printing area of the lower cover 2 of the package box.
[0035] The packaging box coding streamline provided by the present application separates the closed packaging box upper cover 1 and the packaging box lower cover 2 through the first conveying module 210 and the first suction cup assembly 220 of the flipping mechanism 200, and then flips the packaging box lower cover 2 through the flipping assembly 230 to expose the printing area of the packaging box lower cover 2, and then the conveying mechanism 100 conveys the packaging box lower cover 2 to the coding mechanism 300 to perform coding printing on the printing area of the packaging box lower cover 2. In this way, the closed packaging box upper cover 1 and the packaging box lower cover 2 are automatically separated, and the printing area of the packaging box lower cover 2 is exposed, so that the packaging box is automatically coded and printed, and the coding efficiency of the packaging box is improved.
[0036] In a feasible implementation, the first transport module 210 has an X-axis linear module and a Z-axis linear module that are connected to each other. The first suction cup assembly 220 can be connected to the Z-axis linear module or to the X-axis module. The first suction cup assembly 220 can be connected to an external air circuit, and the air circuit provides negative pressure to absorb and transfer the upper cover of the packaging box.
[0037] In a feasible embodiment, the flip assembly 230 includes: two clamping jaws 231 arranged in pairs, two clamping cylinders 232 and two rotating motors 233. The two clamping jaws 231 are respectively connected to the telescopic ends of the two clamping cylinders 232. The two clamping cylinders 232 drive the two clamping jaws 231 to approach or move away, clamping or releasing the lower cover 2 of the packaging box. The two clamping jaws 231 are also respectively connected to the output ends of the two rotating motors 233, and the two rotating motors 233 drive the two clamping jaws 231 to drive the lower cover 2 of the packaging box to flip 180°. In this way, the flip assembly 230 has a simple structure and can move together under the drive of the first transport module 210. The overall structure of the flip mechanism 200 is compact and space-saving.
[0038] In a feasible implementation, the flip assembly 230 may also be other structures, such as a mechanical arm. The mechanical arm may have a clamping assembly. The clamping assembly first flips the lower cover 2 of the packaging box, and then buckles the lower cover 2 of the packaging box on the carrier 4.
[0039] In a feasible embodiment, the flip mechanism 200 further includes a dust removal component 240, which is used to remove dust on the packaging box. The packaging box is usually made of paper material, and some dust is often generated during the production and transportation process, which is adsorbed on the surface of the packaging box, affecting the cleanliness of the packaging box, and further affecting the information extraction on the surface of the packaging box and the inkjet printing effect. By setting the dust removal component 240 to remove dust or debris on the packaging box, the inkjet printing effect of the packaging box can be effectively improved and defective products can be reduced.
[0040] In a feasible embodiment, the flipping mechanism 200 further includes a blocking assembly. The blocking assembly includes a blocking cylinder and a blocking block fixed to the output end of the blocking cylinder. The blocking assembly can be arranged at a position corresponding to the flipping mechanism 200 on the conveying mechanism 100. In this way, when the carrier 4 is conveyed to the flipping mechanism 200 on the conveying mechanism 100, the blocking assembly can prevent the carrier 4 from continuing to be conveyed. Further, the blocking assembly can also include a lifting assembly, which lifts the blocked carrier 4 to the streamline of the conveying mechanism 100, and then separates and flips the packaging box on the carrier 4. In this way, the operation of the flipping mechanism 200 can be facilitated.
[0041] In a feasible embodiment, the dust removal component 240 includes a dust removal pipeline 241 and a dust collecting member 242. The dust collecting member 242 has a groove structure. The dust removal pipeline 241 is arranged in the groove of the dust collecting member 242 along the length direction of the groove of the dust collecting member 242. The portion of the dust removal pipeline 241 that is arranged in the groove of the dust collecting member 242 is provided with a plurality of air holes. A dust removal sticker is laid on the inner wall of the groove of the dust collecting member 242, and the dust removal pipeline 241 is passed through negative pressure. In this way, the first conveying module 210 can drive the first suction cup assembly 220 to buckle the upper cover 1 or the lower cover 2 of the packaging box onto the dust collecting part 242. The dust removal pipe is located between the upper cover 1 or the lower cover 2 of the packaging box and the dust collecting part. The square structure of the upper cover 1 or the lower cover 2 of the packaging box cooperates with the groove structure of the dust collecting part 242 to form a relatively closed space. At this time, the dust removal pipeline 241 is passed through negative pressure to suck the dust in the upper cover 1 or the lower cover 2 of the packaging box into the dust collecting part. Dust removal stickers are laid in the dust collecting part to absorb the dust sucked out by the negative pressure, thereby improving the dust removal effect.
[0042] In a feasible implementation, the dust removal component 240 may also be other structures. For example, air may be blown into the upper cover 1 or the lower cover 2 of the packaging box to blow away the dust inside the upper cover 1 or the lower cover 2 of the packaging box.
[0043] In a feasible implementation, the packaging box coding streamline can be provided with two flipping mechanisms 200. The two flipping mechanisms 200 can increase the number of packaging box separations and flips per unit time, increase the cycle time of the overall operation of the packaging box coding streamline, and improve the equipment operation efficiency.
[0044] In a feasible embodiment, the conveying mechanism 100 includes a first conveyor belt 110, a second conveyor belt 120 and a third conveyor belt 130. The first conveyor belt 110 is used to carry the carrier 4 and transfer the carrier 4 to the flip mechanism 200, and then transport it from the flip mechanism 200 to the front end of the second conveyor belt 120 and the third conveyor belt 130. The second conveyor belt 120 is used to receive the lower cover 2 of the packaging box from the first conveyor belt 110 and transport the lower cover 2 of the packaging box to the coding mechanism 300 for coding. The front end of the third conveyor belt 130 docks with the rear end of the first conveyor belt 110. The third conveyor belt 130 is used to transport the carrier 4 carrying the product 3 and the upper cover 1 of the packaging box to the discharge position 102.
[0045] In a feasible embodiment, the first conveyor belt 110 and the third conveyor line are both used to convey the carrier 4, and the structures of the first conveyor line and the third conveyor line can be the same or similar. The first conveyor line and the third conveyor line can be roller conveyor lines or double-speed chain conveyor lines or other common conveyor belt structures.
[0046] In a feasible embodiment, the second conveying line can be a linear module, and a carrier that carries the lower cover 2 of the packaging box is fixed to the moving end of the linear module. Furthermore, the structure of the carrier can limit and fix the lower cover 2 of the packaging box. Furthermore, the carrier can also have a suction cup assembly, and the carrier can be connected to an external air circuit to adsorb and fix the lower cover 2 of the packaging box through negative pressure to ensure the stability of inkjet printing and improve the inkjet printing effect.
[0047] In a feasible implementation, the conveying mechanism 100 further includes a fourth conveyor belt 140. The front end of the fourth conveyor belt 140 is butted against the rear end of the third conveyor belt 130, and the rear end of the fourth conveyor belt 140 is butted against the front end of the first conveyor belt 110. The fourth conveyor belt 140 is used to recirculate the empty carrier 4. By providing the fourth conveyor belt 140 to recirculate the empty carrier 4, the recovery of the carrier 4 can be facilitated, and the loading of the carrier 4 can be facilitated, thereby improving the efficiency of the inkjet streamline operation of the packaging box.
[0048] In a feasible implementation, the fourth conveyor belt 140 can be arranged below the first conveyor belt 110 and the third conveyor belt 130. In this way, the arrangement of the double-layer conveyor belt can optimize the streamline layout of the packaging box coding, save space, and improve space utilization.
[0049] In a feasible implementation, the structure of the fourth conveyor belt 140 may be the same or similar to that of the first conveyor belt 110 or the third conveyor belt 130. The fourth conveyor belt 140 is used to transport the carrier 4, so its structure may be the same or similar to that of the first conveyor belt 110 or the third conveyor belt 130 that also transports the carrier 4, and will not be described in detail here.
[0050] In a feasible embodiment, the packaging box coding line also includes a product 3 loading mechanism 500. The product 3 loading mechanism 500 includes a product 3 conveyor belt 510, a second handling module 520, a second suction cup assembly 530 and a wake-up assembly 540. The product 3 conveyor belt 510 is used to convey product 3 to the wake-up assembly 540. The wake-up assembly 540 and the second suction cup assembly 530 are connected to the second handling module 520. The second handling module 520 drives the wake-up assembly 540 to light up the product code of product 3. The second handling module 520 drives the second suction cup assembly 530 to absorb the product 3 and transfer the product 3 to the carrier 4 on the loading position 101 of the conveying mechanism 100. In this way, by setting such a loading structure, the product 3 can be automatically lit, awakened or started, which is convenient for extracting product 3 information.
[0051] In a feasible implementation, the second transport module 520 may be a Z-axis linear module and an X-axis linear module. The second transport module 520 first moves the product 3 out of the product 3 conveyor belt 510 along the Z axis, then moves it to the top of the carrier 4 on the first conveyor belt 110 along the X axis, and finally puts it into the third loading position 43 of the carrier 4 on the first conveyor belt 110 along the Z axis.
[0052] In a feasible implementation, the awakening component 540 includes a trigger key 541, a trigger motor 542 and a fixing member 543. The fixing member 543 has a groove for accommodating the product 3, one end of the trigger key 541 is arranged in the groove, and the other end of the trigger key 541 is connected to the output end of the trigger motor 542. When the product 3 is accommodated in the groove, the trigger motor 542 drives the trigger key 541 to approach and press the switch of the product 3 to wake up the product 3. In this way, when the product 3 is a digital product 3 with a power button such as a watch or a mobile phone, the product 3 can be automatically awakened and the screen of the product 3 can be lit, so that the corresponding product 3 information can be extracted by the information extraction device and matched and proofread with the information that needs to be printed by inkjet coding later. Furthermore, the information extraction device can be a camera recognition device or a barcode scanning gun and other devices.
[0053] In a feasible implementation, the packaging box coding line further includes a robot arm assembly 400. The robot arm assembly 400 is disposed between the first conveyor belt 110 and the second conveyor belt 120.

[0054] In a feasible implementation, the packaging box coding line further includes an inspection device and a defective product recovery mechanism, wherein the inspection device is used to inspect whether the packaging box is qualified, and the defective product recovery mechanism is used to recover defective products.
[0055] In a feasible implementation, the inspection device may include an information extraction mechanism and a software program for determining whether it is a defective product based on the extracted information. The inspection mechanism may include a first scanning gun, a second scanning gun, and a third scanning gun. The first scanning gun is used to scan and record the carrier 4 code of the carrier 4 and the product code of the product 3 before the packaging box is loaded. The second scanning gun scans the carrier 4 code and the upper cover 1 code of the packaging box after the upper cover 1 and the lower cover 2 of the packaging box are separated, and binds the product code, the carrier 4 code, and the upper cover 1 code information of the packaging box. The third scanning gun is used to scan the printing area of the lower cover 2 of the packaging box after the inkjet printing of the lower cover 2 of the packaging box is completed, and determine whether the inkjet printing is correct, clear and qualified. The defective product situation may be that the information of the packaging box (including the upper cover 1 and the lower cover 2 of the packaging box) does not correspond to the information of the product 3 and / or the carrier 4, and the information of the lower cover 2 of the packaging box is not clearly printed. Further, the robotic arm assembly 400 can be used to recycle defective products. The robot arm assembly 400 can transfer the carrier 4 containing the defective packaging box from the front end of the third conveyor line to the defective product recovery mechanism according to the inspection result of the inspection device.
[0056] In a feasible embodiment, the coding mechanism 300 may include a positioning component, an information printing component and a third transport module. The positioning component of the coding mechanism 300 can position the lower cover 2 of the packaging box and confirm that the printing area of the lower cover 2 of the packaging box is in the correct printing position. The information printing component of the coding mechanism 300 prints the corresponding information in the printing area and UV cures it. The third barcode scanning gun of the inspection device can also inspect the lower cover 2 of the packaging box after printing to confirm whether the printing is qualified. The third transport module of the coding mechanism 300 can move the lower cover 2 of the packaging box after coding to the carrier 4 corresponding to the discharge position 102. The structure of the positioning component can be common laser positioning or other positioning methods, the information printing component can be a common inkjet printing device and UV curing equipment, and the third transport module structure can be a linear module or other common transport components, which will not be repeated here.
[0057] In a feasible implementation, the packaging box coding streamline may include two second streamlines and two coding mechanisms 300. Each second streamline corresponds to a coding mechanism 300. In this way, the coding speed can be effectively improved, and the production efficiency of the packaging box coding streamline can be improved.
[0058] The operation process of the packaging box coding line provided in this application is as follows:
[0059] The product 3 conveyor belt 510 of the product 3 loading mechanism 500 conveys the product 3 to the awakening component 540. The second handling module 520 first moves the product 3 out of the product 3 conveyor belt 510 along the Z axis and puts it into the awakening component 540. The awakening component 540 wakes up the product 3, and then moves it along the X axis to the top of the carrier 4 located at the loading position 101 of the first conveyor belt 110, and finally puts it into the third loading position 43 of the carrier 4 of the first conveyor belt 110 along the Z axis. The first barcode scanner of the inspection device scans and records the carrier code of the carrier 4 and the product code of the product 3.
[0060] The first conveyor belt 110 of the conveying mechanism 100 conveys the carrier 4 carrying the product 3 from the loading position 101 to the manual loading position 101, and the covered packaging box is manually placed into the first loading position 41 of the carrier 4, and the first conveyor belt 110 continues to convey and conveys the carrier 4 to the turning mechanism 200;
[0061] The blocking cylinder of the turning mechanism 200 lifts the blocking block to prevent the carrier 4 from continuing to transport;
[0062] The first transport module 210 of the flip mechanism 200 drives the first suction cup assembly 220 to the top of the first loading position 41 of the carrier 4, sucks the upper cover 1 of the packaging box along the Z axis, and then moves along the X axis to buckle the upper cover 1 of the packaging box on the dust suction piece 242 of the dust removal assembly 240. The negative pressure of the dust removal pipeline 241 sucks the dust in the upper cover 1 of the packaging box onto the dust removal stickers laid in the dust suction piece 242. The first suction cup assembly 220 then moves along the X axis and the Z axis to place the upper cover 1 of the packaging box on the second loading position 42 of the carrier 4.
